1 John / Question
Question source
1 John
The letter states that God is love and that love is shown in God sending his only Son into the world so that people might live through him. It also links love for one another to being born of God and knowing God. See 1 John 4:8–9.
8He who doesn`t love doesn`t know God, for God is love.
9By this was God`s love revealed in us, that God has sent his only born Son into the world that we might live through him.
